BLOG LOVE

The Bettina Liano pre-winter range has been featured on some quality fashion blogs lately… in particular our exclusive Delftland print seems to have caused quite a stir.

Here’s a few of our favourite posts (click images for link to source) for your viewing pleasure:

GET THE LOOK – Beyonce

Beyonce’s latest video for her new song, Party is our BL film clip of the week. The look is a retro summer hip-hop block party and we love the fun styling and sunny mood (and secretly hope that we will look just as amazing on our Summer break). And the song is just infectious – it’s so mellow and catchy, we’ve had it on repeat at the office for days… Here are our favourite stills along with some outfit help from Bettina Liano to get you looking as babin’ as Beyonce on your Summer holidays.

New In: Delftland

We’ve been waiting ALL YEAR for the arrival of these chiffon and canvas numbers in the Bettina Liano exclusive Delftland print. The pattern is a repeated landscape inspired by Delft (Dutch) china ware and because it’s blue and white, like denim and chambray, the versatility is unexpectedly endless – wear with just about any colour, wear alone in summer or layer it up for winter. Stacey, our office jack of all trades (including modelling…), wears some outfit options below:

Aurora Vent Blouse and O Jean Leggings

Frontline Jacket and O Jean Leggings worn with the white Rectangle Tee

Aurora Button Skirt worn over Chartreuse coloured Day Shift Dress

Candy Pleat Skirt worn with Skyline Denim Shirt.

Candy Pleat Dress worn with Neoprene Bow Belt in fluorescent green

We <3 Nail Art

We love these Sally Hansen nail stickers! Their new range offers lots of different colours and patterns but our favourite is (obviously) the denim. They’re so easy to apply and can fit any size or shape of nail. Looks just like you’ve got little jeans on your fingers… sort of…

Take double-denim to the next level like we did with our Bettina Liano indigo Curvy jeans below:

Nail stickers available at all good pharmacies

**Style Inspiration**

Cape Jersey Tee in cotton/viscose and high-waisted Daisy Flare in over-dyed cotton.

A caped top and flared jeans could say ‘costume’ to most, but that’s the beauty of this outfit – think Stevie Nicks meets Carine Roitfeld. Perfect for a “smart casual” Spring function or for any time you need to look chic – this look will take you through to Autumn and will even lend itself to some clever layering in winter.

Mid-rise cotton Geo Weave jean and silk yoryu Klara top

Printed jeans are, like, a really big deal right now. Get these gorgeous O-Jeans in our exclusive Bettina Liano geometric print to add interest to any outfit – stand out with this look while still being sleek and modern. Also featuring the ultra-transparent Klara top that also looks great with a visible bra – perfect for night time.

MISS JAY & BL

J.Alexander, affectionately known many including Tyra Banks as “Miss Jay,” is famous for his appearance as a judge and model coach on America’s Next Top Model. He’s been in Australia recently as the new spokesperson for Fruche yogurt, and made an appearance at Bouchee cafe, right outside BL in Chadstone Shopping Center. We popped over to the exclusive brunch for a yoghurt snack and a chat to Miss Jay, who happened to be OBSESSED with our Belle Du Jour maxi dress!

Leukemia Foundation’s Designer Quilt for a Cure

Bettina Liano took part in a project to raise money and awareness for the Leukemia Foundation of Queensland along with 30 more of Australia’s top fashion designers. All participants applied a signature square to the patchwork quilt, resulting in an adorable piece that can be bought online at auction. We contributed a piece of our signature monogram silk in beige, which you can see just below the top right-hand corner.
